TongueType is a privacy-focused macOS voice dictation app that turns speech into text on-device using a local Whisper AI model.
Choppity is an AI-powered video and audio platform that combines automated transcription with short-form content creation. Users upload video or audio files, or paste links from sources like YouTube, and Choppity transcribes the recording with speaker identification and timestamps before turning the spoken transcript into an editable workspace. Although it is best known for automatically extracting dozens of short, social-ready clips from long-form videos and podcasts, it also serves transcription and captioning needs directly: it generates styled subtitles for video, supports transcript-based editing where you edit the footage by editing the text, and offers dedicated tools for transcribing meeting recordings from platforms such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet. The platform supports a large number of languages and includes features like automatic reframing for vertical formats, profanity detection, and one-click social publishing and scheduling. Choppity offers a free tier alongside paid plans and an API, making it usable by individual creators, podcasters, and teams that want to repurpose recorded conversations, interviews, and meetings into both transcripts and shareable video content. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.

TongueType is a voice dictation application for macOS that converts speech to text entirely on-device using a locally-run Whisper AI model, so audio never leaves the Mac. It lives in the menu bar with no dock icon, and works as a press-to-talk input method: the user holds a configurable hotkey (or uses a double-tap latch), speaks, and the transcribed text is inserted at the cursor in any application that accepts text input. Beyond live dictation, it can transcribe audio and video files (such as WAV, MP3, MP4, and MOV). It supports multiple languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean, with automatic language detection, plus customizable post-processing rules, overlay appearance, and microphone options. Preferences can sync across Macs via iCloud. It requires macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon (M1 or later). The app is aimed at people who want faster text entry than typing, professionals needing quick transcription, and users with typing difficulties (arthritis, RSI, tremor, and similar accessibility needs).
